NEW REMEDY FOR THE SLEEPLEss.
Now. what il il that disturbs sleep?
Noise Z Not altogether, for the in.
habitants Of besieged town have been
known to sleep through the rear OF
bombardmens. and TO waken snddealy
when the firing ceased. Millers will
sometimes start up from sleep, awak-
ened by the mere stopping OF the mill
wheel. The rattle of train in mo-
tion will induce sleep, as all travellers
know. And last, not least. the sleep
OF infants. the sweetest and soundest
of all, is promoted by sound. The
popular view. then, that noise dis
turbs sleep, like most popular views,
only touches the truth, but does not
grasp it. The true cause of disturb
snee is interruption. Any sudden
cessation of the continuity Of silence
or of sound awakens the sleeper; for
sound, provided it be monotonous,
has precisely the same effect on the
brain as silence That simple piece of
mechanism, the alarm clock, is based
on the theory of interruptions in
terrupts silence.
Now, might not, suggests the Eng
ash Medical Journal, an equally sim
pie contrivance be made on the same
mechanical principles, but with the
reverse object, viz, that of insuring
sleep by sound? Its utility, to deli
cate persons especially, would be un-
doubted. Call it the morphiometer,
the soudniferant, or give 1t French
title. and christen it the garde-somne,
or sleep-preserver-a name, by the
way, that would truly designate its
object, for its real object would not be
so much to promote sleep as to insure
the sleeper against disturbance land
vulnerable side of light sleepers) by
placing a bulwark of sound between
him and the sudden shocks of extra
neous noise. Let your sleep preserver
produce the drowsy, morotonous buzz
of the humming top, not so loud as to
be heard in an adjoining room, but
loud enough to drown distinct noises
when placed clese to the bedside or
hung over the pillow.

The first annual fair OF the Los An
geles County Pathological Society will
be opened to-day in Hazards Pavil-
ion, on Fifth street, opposite the City
Park. The tables and all facilities for
a grand exposition are in order, and
will be placed before the public this
evening. A vast amount OF fruit is at
the depots of the Southern Pacific
and California Central railways, and
will be placed in position to-day The
spaces have been well furnished with
tables and are nearly all taken. The
display will be one of the finest of all
the fine displays in the State. All
who have something meritorious
should be sure to bring it in to-day.
The executive exposition committee
consists of Hiram Hamilton, VIM. A.

A COLLISION.
Two santa Monica Trains Try TO
Pass ON the Same Track.

What might have been very
serious accident happened yesterday
evening on the Santa Monica railroad,
about two miles the other side of Park
Station. The regular Sunday evening
special train which leaves Santa
Monica at $50 o'clock for this city,
and the regular train from this city to
Santa Monica came together about
two hundred yards this side of the
Cienega turnout. 1t appears from the
statements of the trainmen that on the
Sunday previous the trains had passed
at Park Station, and last night, when
the special from Santa Monica reached
Cienega, the engineer could see no train
approaching, and on consulting his
time-piece thought he had time to go
to Park Station and pass the down
train at that point. Engineer Watson,
of the down train, supposed that he
would find the special waiting at the
Cienega switch There was evidently
an absence of orders or misunder-
standing of the same, for the trains
came together not very far from Gle
mega turnout. Engineer Watson, OF
the down train, caught sight OF the
special first and had nearly brought
his engine to standstill, but there
being train of thirteen cars behind
the engine of the special, it became
evident that there would be a COLI
sion. The fireman on the down train
jumped and sprained his ankle
Just as the engines came together.
The force of the collision was not
great enough to cause any injury, eX-
cept to the engines, which were quite
badly broken. Engine No. 10, on the
down train, had its cow-catcher twist
ed entirely off, its wheels broken and
the truck smashed. Engine No. 1875,
of the special, had its headlight
knocked off and its boiler broken.
None of the passengers were injured,
although some of them were shaken
in the forward cars. Those in the
rear cars of the special were not aware
that the accident had happened until
informed by those in front. The thir-
teen cars on the special were filed to
oftIHoWluS Will pdSseiiSeIS, Hldily vi
whom were standing. The two cars
OF the regular were not so crowded,
but there were nearly a hundred
on board. Altogether there were
about fourteen hundred passengers
who narrowly escaped injury or death.
AS soon as the accident was reported
a relief train, preceded by a wrecking
train, left for the scene, but prior to
their arrival quite a number of the
had walked to this city.
The passengers bound this way were
transferred to the relief train, which
arrived at quarter-past 10 O'Clock,
but those who were bound for Santa
Monica were waiting for some means
to reach their destination, at the last
account.

The Southern Pacific Tract Con,

in About u Dozen Piaces.
The unexampled washouts at Flow
ing Wells, Cienega, near Pantano,
and nearly a dozen other places be-
tween Salton and the New Mexico
boundery, are the most notable items
of the news of the day. These water
spouts are terrible in their energy,
and have torn up the track of the
Southern Pacific Company for about
ten miles in all, and in some places to
depth of ten or fifteen feet. The
work of reconstruction is being pushed
rapidly forward, but owing to the eX-
treme heat of the weather must be
necessarily slow. 1t seems that in
the localities where these vortices in
the atmospheres take place the rail
ways will have to be built on concrete
or piling. An earth foundation ap-
pears to have no strength against
these cataclysms of nature.
The Southern Pacific Company,
with that energy which has always
characterized the California pioneers
in all their undertakings, have gone
10 Work WIN Will 10 repair CneSe
ravages of the waters. There are
three large camps, OF one hundred
men each, at the front com
batting the elements for a
right OF way over the deserts. From
this point there has gone forward an
immense mass of material to be used
in repairing the track. No less than
eighty-six carloads Of ties, twenty car
loads of bridge timbers and two miles
of steel rails have been sent out. This
morning Mr.. w. T. Lambie, OF this
city, and Mr.. w. 6. Curtis, of the ex.
ecutiye staff of the company, from San
Francisco, go to the front to hasten
the work of restoration. 1t is thought
that within ten days the track will be
in condition again, and through trains
running.
